Vitamin C and Zinc are not the same. Vitamin C is a vitamin. Zinc is a mineral. Both, however, are antioxidants. Vitamin and mineral antioxidants include Vitamins A, C, and E, and minerals Zinc and Selenium. There are, however, other organic carbon compounds that also have anti-oxidative properties such as polyphenols and flavonoids... I can see your confusion as many people take Vit. C and/or Zinc as a natural cold prevention/remedy. However, among the nutritional community and according to the American Dietetic Association, there is no clinically significant evidence that's supports the idea that over-supplementing will prevent or cure a cold. Once you receive 100% of the daily value of any vitamin or mineral, your body will either excrete it via urine or feces (in the case of the water soluble vitamin C) or store it in your adipose tissue and other organs (in the case of fat soluble vitamins like A,D,E, and K). Storing too much of a vitamin is dangerous and will cause toxicity.
